3D Vectors From Photogrammetry
Most photogrammetry projects are real-world scenes in your computer – digital twins. Therefore you can inspect and measure any real-life objects on a screen in your workspace. Pixpro photogrammetry software uses points, lines, and polygons to obtain measurements. Additionally, these vector objects c


PC For Photogrammetry – What Hardware Do You Need?
Photogrammetry software employs dozens of algorithms to produce accurate, realistic results. Initial 3D reconstruction, dense point cloud generation, and 3D mesh generation with texturing are processes that require the most computer resources to do the heavy calculations under the hood. Digital elev


Autel Evo Lite+ Review For Photogrammetry
Autel Robotics Evo Lite+ is a consumer quadcopter drone made to compete with the DJI Mavic drones – the most popular drones on the market. Autel Robotics is another Chinese owned company in the consumer UAV space trying to make a mainstream product worldwide. We will look at the drone and answer the


3D Model Export from Pixpro to Sketchfab
Sketchfab is one of the most popular platforms for sharing your 3D models and 3D scenes made with photogrammetry. In some cases, users might want to share 3D models straight from the photogrammetry software. To do that and for many other purposes, Pixpro has built-in features that help to keep the s


Common Photogrammetry Problem – the Bowl Effect
A bowl or bowing effect is common photogrammetry problem that usually occurs in an aerial photogrammetry scan when the entire reconstruction bows upwards or downwards. It eliminates any possibility of having accurate measurements and makes the 3D scene unrepresentative of the real world. Most people


Megapixels and Image Quality – What Really Matters?
Megapixels – often a headline of any imaging device specifications. Phones, drones, and all kinds of cameras list the megapixel count front and center. How significant is the amount of megapixels in an imaging device? Where is the line between helpful information and marketing? We will answer these


DJI Mini 3 Pro for Photogrammetry – Tool or Toy?
DJI Mini 3 Pro – the latest compact DJI drone equipped with a capable camera. We purchased the drone with our money to evaluate using it for photogrammetry, just like we did with the Mavic 3. This article will not be a review, but an overview, emphasizing photogrammetry. So how good is the Mini 3 […


Drone Duty – a Flight Planner for Photogrammetry
During years of photogrammetric software development, the Pixpro team faced challenges acquiring and processing photographs made for photogrammetry purposes. From terrestrial photogrammetry projects completed with simple cameras or smartphones to massive aerial scan datasets spanning entire towns, w
